Originally a painter, Bobbe Gentry has been a sculptor of the figure for the past fifteen years. Today, her graceful, realistic figures may be seen in galleries from the coast of California, to the coast of South Carolina and in between. In addition to gallery representation, her work is seen in many public places, such as the Memphis Botanical Gardens and The Longview Museum of Fine Arts.
Although she is basically self taught, she is a persistent student and has studied with many other professional artists, such as Stanley Bliefield, Lincoln Fox and Fritz White, among others. She teaches workshops regularly at The Creative Arts Center of Dallas, as well as her own studio in central Texas.
Working in one of a kind terra cottas or limited edition bronzes, she uses the figure to create emotion through body language. Whether the figure is draped or undraped, young or old, the human figure is her never ending source of inspiration.
